Despite dying at the relatively early age of 45 he produced numerous lengthy works spanning hadith, theology, biography, and jurisprudence that are still read today. Alongside Abu al-Qasim al-Rafi'i he is regarded by the Shafi'i school as one of its two leading jurists of the earlier classical age, known as the Two Shaykhs.
